Yeah! In that order!

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.

Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality.
Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

After gutting Medicare and Medicaid to fund tax breaks for the rich, Trump and Republicans are now refusing to stop insurance premiums from skyrocketing.

Meanwhile, California will make CalRx insulin available at $11 a pen starting Jan. 1st.

We are not the same.

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

They’re both already morally and spiritually bankrupt. They think they’re invincible. I hope karma catches up to them sooner rather than later.

I don’t see how releasing this guy from jail will improve his approval ratings (37%)

The arresting officers were perfect gentleman, unlike the “manner” that DHS operates. He actually thought he was ok to drive with his kids. I take it the DUI 2 yrs back taught him nothing.

Everyone sing along!

🎶Don’t cry for us, Argentina.
We’re like Canada, only much meaner.
And we gave up healthcare,
For your peso to be finer,
So you could steal our soybean exports.
That went to China.🎶

Glad to see New Hampshire saw right through her pretense & elected a democrat. Seems like she’s holding a grudge. Oh well.
